Missing asteroid textures-solved
hi i have problem with missing ast. textures. Im using Launcher v5.4.1(tested also 5.3)  FSopen v 3.6.7.
vp files im using:mv_core, mv_textures, mv_models, mv_effects and Media VP 3.6.7 Patch 1-3(all vp files from SCP mainpage)
I dont use any cmd lines
Could it be caused by damaged vp file? Without textures i cant play FSport because they also dont have hitboxes and its impossible to destroy them when escorting Galatea....

Re: Missing asteroid textures
Your mediavps and your build are pretty far out of date.

use the 3.6.8zeta mediavps instead of the 3.6.7 ones ? Don't forget the Alpha patches in the 3.6.8zeta thread.

Use a more recent build of Freespace Open, such as 3.6.9RC6 (unofficial)

BTW Don't use patch 3 with 3.6.7. They aren't meant to go together at all.

Re: Missing asteroid textures
This is probably just the bad texture maps problem.  The asteroid textures weren't power-of-2, but were compressed DDS, so the game will refuse to load them.  Either that (can't remember when that was the biggest issue) or the textures are TGA only and you aren't using the -jpgtga cmdline option.

Just get a newer build and newer MediaVPs and that should take care of it.
